 I was telling some friends about the Christmas Filks episode. The idea came up for some possible song adaptations, including this one. Anyone out there with the skills to adapt this song into the APOIAF context? (bonuses for APOIAF references) Main idea would be Sansa + The Hound or Littlefinger (or both with competing lyrics). I guess another idea would be Dany + Drogo. Base lyrics (Rolf) You wait little girl On an empty stage For fate to turn the light on Your life little girl is an empty page that men will want to write on (Liesl) To write on (Rolf) You are 16 going on 17 Baby its time to think Better beware Be canny and careful Baby you're on the brink You are 16 going on 17 Fellows will fall in line Eager young lads And roués and cads Will offer you food and wine Totally unprepared are you To face a world of men Timid and shy and scared are you Of things beyond your kin You need someone Older and wiser Telling you what to do I am 17 going on 18 I'll take care of you (Liesl) I am 16 going on 17 I know that i'm naive Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet And willingly I believe I am 16 going on 17 innocent as a rose Bachelor dandies Drinkers of brandies What do I know of those? Totally unprepared am I To face a world of men Timid and shy and scared am I Of things beyond my kin I need someone Older and wiser Telling me what to do You are 17 going on 18 I'll depend on you More lyrics: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/t/the_sound_of_music/Quote: The lyrics of the song state that Liesl is a young girl at the beginning of her womanhood, and that she can depend on Rolf for guidance, because he is a good year older. Since the comparative maturity of the two characters in the story is the opposite of that expressed in the song, this is an example of lyrical irony.

That's a pretty good idea Amin, to hide the lyrics so they don't take up space. My lyric attempt -(Hound)
You wait little bird
please stay in your cage
for me to come around
Your face little bird
don't turn around
it's only me, the Hound
(Sansa)
But I'm scared.
(Hound)
You are 13, older than you seem
girl it's time to run.
Better be careful
Courteous and delightful
Baby I need a son.
You are 13, the best that I've have seen.
Fellows will hit the ground.
Rookie young boys
I kill and destroy
They will all fall to your Hound.
Not prepared for this horrible world
The knights are not what you wanted
Thoughtful and nice and dumb are you
But I'm not the only one who's hardened.
You need someone
ugly and scarred
telling you like it is!
I am 29, I hope you are mine
Little bird you better not be his.
(Sansa)
I am 13, want to be the queen
I know I can make it true
Men I encounter, they all want to mount her
But can they cut a man in two?
I am 13, will I make 14
I am a little bird
I sing as he swings
he might be my king
no, that is just absurd
This world is not what I expected
This world is full of false knights
Young and sweet and scared I am
so maybe the Hound is right!
I need someone
rougher and tougher
telling me just how it is
You are 29, smelling of cheep wine
But no matter I am his. A few rough patches, but I'm sure we can clean it up a bit.

Nice, pretty good start so far for the Hound's lines! (and Sansa's response) Anyone want to take up Littlefinger's proposal? (and corresponding response) If this turns out good, I'll ask if Ashley and Kyle are willing to sing it out as one of the bonus parts of episode 100  Or some of our fans with good singing voices.

Haha I was thinking it could be a Gendry/Arya song... you know, because Gendry is so wise about the world and all.

Thanks. It's hard for me to know if it will work when I can't sing. If someone takes the time to sing it, then I can tell if it needs work. I don't really know how music works in that way, but it seems to match up pretty well and fallows the same rhyming structure. It was mostly for fun

Jon and Ygritte would work well too (with Ygritte being the older and wiser one!)
Or we could go the extreme age difference.
Pycelle and a whore.
Walder Frey and his wife.
Jon Arryn and Lysa.
Tywin and Shae.
Cersei and Lancel.
Ramsey and Jeyne Pool.

(Littlefinger)
You dream little girl
of a loyal knight
with love so true to sing of
your bed little girl
is an magic place
that men are wont to think of
(Sansa)
to think of
(Littlefinger)
you are 13 going on 14
Sansa it time to creak
better beware
be canny and careful
Sansa just take a drink
you are 13 going on 14
Dontos will fall in line
eager young Sers
and royal poseurs
will offer you lies that shine
totally unprepared are you
to play the game of thrones
polite and shy and scared are you
praying to maids and crones
you need someone
older and wiser
teaching you what to do
I am 31 appearing on Dateline
I'll take care of you
(Sansa)
I am 13 going on 14
I know that I'm naive
Hounds that I meet tell me to tweet
and willingly I believe
I am 13 going on 14 innocent as a rose
oldies but goodies
hearty Manwoodies
what do I know of those?
totally unprepared am I
to play the game of thrones
polite and shy and scared am I
praying to maids and crones
I need someone
older and wiser
teaching me what to do
you are 31 appearing on Dateline
I'll soon be rid of you

Excellent work so far! Going to be fun to hear these recorded.
Hoping to see a mention of feather hats, blood oranges, etc at some point in one of the songs.

(Jorah)
You roam, your Grace, in a vast Red Waste
struggling just to carry on
this life, your Grace, is fading with haste
it might be time to move on
(Dany)
to move on
(Jorah)
You are 14 going on 15
Khaleesi, it's time to think
Better to wear
some armor and chainmail
Khaleesi, mind what you drink
you are 14 going on 15
usurpers will fall in time
eager young lords
and randy consorts
will offer you death by wine
totally paramoured are you
to feather the hats of men
unburned and sly and bared are you
juicing a blood orange or ten
you need someone older and hairier
riding along with you
I'm a Mormont creeping on a preteen
I'll sneak a stare at you
(Dany)
I am 14 going on 15
I know that I'm damn fine
Ducksauce's fleet may tempt me to cheat
it clearly ought to be mine
I am 14 going on 15 I'll fuckin melt your nose
Qartheen dandies
drinkers of blue teas
dragons can conquer those
totally paramoured am I
to feather the hats of men
unburned and sly and bared am I
juicing a blood orange or ten
I'll send someone older and hairier
crawling up in a sewer
You're a Mormont creeping on a preteen
I hope you don't mind manure

BTW anyone who wants to attempt to sing one of these can submit the file here or to me by email. I will be looking for people to do it, but that will potentially speed things up.

Sounds fun Should we sing just the role of our gender so you can edit it into a duo?

So this version isn't completely within the assignment. I did Jaime and Cersei. I imagined it sung before she goes off to Robert, but after Rhaegar has died. Cersei is a few seconds older than Jamie, but he's male, so, much to her chagrin, he vastly outranks her. I can imagine him as 'protective.' I just wrote and recorded it (on my phone) really fast, so excuse any quality issues. Edit: I can't upload MP3 files. Is there any audio file that does work? You wait little twin
To be queen of the realm
So you can cut Ned’s head off
Your face little twin
Is a lovely helm
That’ll make men want to get off
You are 17 going on 18
Baby it’s time to think
Rheagar is dead
And Robert’s ahead
Baby you’re on the brink
You are 17 going on 18
Your futures ahead of you
My Manwoody is good
But Robert’s got wood
Though maybe I’ll just join too
Maybe the door should creak no more
You will be Robert’s queen
Lusty and mean, you are a whore
There’s things he should not see
You need someone
Stupid and powerful
Giving a throne to you
I’m also 17 going on 18
I’ll take care of you
I am 17 going on 18
I certainly won’t say no
Lords that I meet
Will tell me I’m sweet
And stare at my camel toe
I am 17 going on 18
Robert will love just me
His stag I will bare
With fair golden hair
He’ll maybe be called Joffrey
Maybe the door should creak no more
I will be Robert’s queen
Lusty and mean, I am a whore
There’s things he should not see
I need someone
Stupid and powerful
Giving a throne to me
You’re also 17 going on 18
I will take care of me

If you are recording with the musical backdrop, I found this youtube version. Let me know if anyone has a better version of that for singing to. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4LaFIyZSo8

Yes, either of these options work. If sending large files (over 4 mb) then use sound cloud.
